Cherrys and cherries are 'brothers' of the same genus but different species. Cherries are imported fruits, mainly produced in countries such as Chile.

Long-distance transportation and long-term storage have caused the freshness and quality of cherries to decline to a certain extent. Li Jun suggested that when purchasing cherries, consumers should choose ones that are fresh, with intact skin, plump and firm, and with stems. The more 'J' mark on the outer packaging of the fruit, the larger the cherries.
